FOOLYWANG MATERIAL: Flavor Flav Announces New Vodka And Fried Chicken Line

Posted: 18 Nov 2010 08:48 AM PST

Crown prince of the foolywang reality tv genre, Flavor Flav, has gone all high-brow on us and is developing a line of wines and flavored vodkas.  And if that isn't enough, he's going to give the Food Network a run for their money with his own fried chicken line too.  Deets inside... 

 

Flavor Flav has announced that he is creating a line of FLAVORed vodka and fried chicken.  Yes...you read that correctly.

The Public Enemy rapper recently said,

"I've got the Flavor Flav flavored vodkas and a range of wine coming with my lyrics on the back," Flava said, according to the dailystar.com. And the chicken?, "It's called FFC and the Colonel better watch out."

This might not be a bad idea.  Maybe he could even have chicken that's fried in a vodka batter (you fancy huh?) or chicken flavored vodka (which could be used in the kitchen for pasta and stew).  He may soon be shutting B. Smith's down, y'all. 

So, next time you're standing in the middle of your neighborhood's fine wine and liquor section... are you buying vodka and fried chicken from Mr. Flav?

MOVIE FAB: Will Smith Hits The "Men In Black III" Set+Halle & Friends Hit The "Frankie & Alice" NYC Premiere

Posted: 18 Nov 2010 07:19 AM PST

Men In Black III is really happeneing.  Will Smith was spotted on the NYC set yesterday for the first day of filming.  We've got pics of Willy in his buff and damn hit form, plus pics of Halle and Olivier at her Frankie and Alice NYC premiere last night when you read on...

Will Smith put on his suit to gear up for the Men In Black III taping.  Is that vaseline on his face??  Or just airbrush makeup?  This was the first scene he filmed on the first day by the way.


He posed with his co-stars and fans while going for a jog beforehand.

Oh yes.  We're ready for this one.  The movie is set to premiere May 25, 2012.

Also in NY, last night Halle's Frankie & Alice movie premiere went down:

 

She had her man Olivier there for support.

And looked fab in this cream colored strapless dress.

She posed with her director.

Anika Noni Rose was there.  Guess she felt like dressing down for the occasion.

Heeey Maxwell...

Rachel Roy hit the carpet with her white Chanel bag I'm loving...

Model Roshumba was there as well.  Fab times.

The Randomness:

1.  Sonya Morgan (from "Real Housewives of NY") filed for bankruptcy!  Even though she married and divorced a Morgan (of J.P. Morgan Chase) and had a kid with him who is still pretty young, chick is over $19 million in debt!  She's blaming it on John Travolta and a bad investment.  Story  Hmmmm....

Another Ochocinco Reality Show...With Evelyn Lozada?!

Posted: 18 Nov 2010 05:57 AM PST

 

Word has it Vh1 has already offered Chad Ochocinco and his new "fiance'", Evelyn Lozada, their own reality show. Find out the deets when you read on...

 

We told you earlier that Chad proposed to 'Basketball Wives' star Evelyn Lozado. The couple dated for about four months before Chad gave her a 10 carat diamond ring. Now, just two days after he proposed, Vh1 offered the couple a reality show about their engagement.

The show will center around their relationship and the days leading up to the wedding. Sources say they are both interested, but won't sign a contract unless the money is right.

Something isn't right about this. The two get offered their own show a DAY after he proposes?! Maybe this engagement is just a hoax for the two to get another reality show.  Or will Evelyn switch from 'Basketball Wives' to 'Football Wives' ? Questions we can't bring ourselves to care that much to answer...

 

 

Tony Parker Cheated With Former Teammate Brent Barry's WIFE?! [DIVORCE PAPERS & EVA's STATEMENT INSIDE!]

Posted: 17 Nov 2010 03:30 PM PST

Well this ish just got ugly.  Rumors have been swirling since yesterday that Tony Parker's infidelity is what led Eva Longoria Parker to file for divorce this morning.  But now, word has it he was chopping down another NBA wife....his own former TEAMMATE'S wife to be exact!  And yes...the couples were friends!

 

The deets and text message info (when will they learn?) when you read on...

 

While both Eva and Tony have Tweeted the exact same statement that they still deeply love each other but have chosen to end their 7 year relationship (they were married 3 of those years), news of these cheating text messages of Tony's just got more ugly.

Eva' bestie Mario Lopez went on his show Extra! to reveal some deets.  And apparently Eva confirmed to him that Tony cheated and she had found hundreds of text messages.

Now, other sources both in the NBA and in the industry are revealing that the mistress in question is actually married herself...to Tony's former Spurs teammate!  The alleged culprit is Erin Barry, wife of Brent Barry who retired last year.  Even though her hubby may not be in the league anymore, sounds like homegirl is still playing the field.

Reportedly, the Barrys are in the middle of their own divorce.  No word on when the alleged affair between Tony and Erin began, but I'm sure we'll find out soon.  *waiting on Gloria Allred's inevitable press conference*

 

Oh--but it gets worse.  Eva and Tony are (were) actually FRIENDS with the Barrys.  The pic above was taken at Eva's restaurant Beso on New Year's Eve where the couple partied together.  Damn!  Looks like you gotta watch your man around married women too.  And Tony def has a type...

 

CNN reports:

Longoria says that Parker cheated on her earlier in their marriage and that he kept in touch with the woman on Facebook, according to Lopez.

"She is devastated, she wants us all to know that," Lopez says. "But she's strong."

Not Facebook!

And sports reporter Bryan A. Graham tweeted what he knows from the inside:

 

Here are the divorce docs filed this morning where Eva claims "irreconcilable differences":

By the way, Tony just signed a four-year, $45 million extension with the Spurs.

Nicki Minaj Looks...INTERESTING...Greeting Fans In NY + VIDEO Of Nicki On "Wendy Williams"

Posted: 17 Nov 2010 01:11 PM PST

 

Nicki Minaj, her gear, and by gear we mean butt pads, and her new MAC lipstick named Pink Friday greeted fans in New York earlier. We've got pics when you read on...

The self proclaimed Harajuku Barbie showed up in New York to tape an episode of the "Wendy Williams Show" this morning. While in NY, she took time to the many fans waiting for her in the street:

 

This look is riding the fine line of big pink diaper and an equestrian who got into a fight with her horse.

I see the "Kenz" were out too.

Oh Nicki...

 

 

Nicki's latest project, 'Pink Friday' drops in stores November 22nd.  But it just leaked online this afternoon.  Here's vid of her on "Wendy" today.

And speaking of Ms. Minaj, she and her pin-up counterparts will be gracing your tv screens on December 5th for the VH1 Divas Salute The Troops show.  Or like my homie "Tonto RegginRazzi" over at Black Voices like to call this show--Divas Lite.  Seeing that all 6 of these chicks equal up to about 1 and a half divas.  Just sayin'...

RIHANNA MANIA: Rih Promotes "LOUD" Album At "106", "GMA", "Letterman", & Chats With Angie Martinez

Posted: 17 Nov 2010 10:37 AM PST

Rihanna's LOUD album dropped yesterday and she has been on a whirlwind media tour to promote the album.  We've got interesting excerpts from her interview with Angie Martinez on Hot 97, and see pics and videos from her stops at "GMA", "Letterman," "106 & Park."  And we have pics of her management boss, Jay-Z, stopping by the "Letterman" show too...

 

 

During an interview on yesterday, Angie Martinez of HOT 97 asked Rihanna if she would ever pose for PLAYBOY magazine. Rihanna said she would never pose nude for money, but would consider being nude if it was artistic and she was in control, "...but it wouldn't be for a check," she said.

When asked about the men in her life, Rihanna dished about her "friendship" with Drake.  It came at a fragile time in her life and the two simply decided to remain friends and not pursue a romance. And now that she is with babseball player Matt Kemp, she says it's very hard to maintain a relationship as her travel schedule makes it hard for her to "be there" for him. 

And talk about a hectic schedule, Rihanna is on her way to Brazil and Australia to finish up her "Only Girl In The World" world tour. Afterwards, she told Angie she plans to come home, regroup, rehearse a little, then go back out for her 2011 LOUD world tour.

During a funny moment, Rih Rih jokingly told Angie (after telling this story during a recent Euro interview) about the time she got a bikini wax and how embarrassing it was. She specified "old...Russian" but she was sent a 25-year-old American waxer. The American asked for an autograph in the middle of applying the "tape." Ouch.

Listen to the interview here.

 

 

Rihanna was spotted arriving at Good Morning America this morning to perform on the show.

She rehearsed for her "Only Girl In The World" and "What's My Name" performances:

Then performed:

 

Her "WHat's My Name" performance.

 

And pics of your fave red-head stopping by "106 & Park" last night:


 

Interesting colors on her.

 

And you can check out her "106 & Park" interview here:

 

Also,  Jay-Z made a trip to "The LATE Show with David Letterman" where Rih performed as well:

 

 

Hey Jay!

1.  Beyonce's perfume commercial has been banned from daytimebBroadcast in the U.K. Story.

Eva Longoria Parker Files For DIVORCE From Tony Parker?! For Real This Time?!

Posted: 17 Nov 2010 09:40 AM PST

After yesterday's "false alarm" on Splitsville Lane where reports hit the Tony Parker filed for divorce from Eva Longoria Parker, NEW reports state Eva just filed this morning!

 

Where there's smoke, there's fire.  Deets when you read on...

So it looks like the Parkers are over afterall. 

People.com is reporting that Eva filed the papers this morning in L.A. Superior Court.  And even though it has't been confirmed, rumors are abuzz saying Tony's infidelity is the reason.  I have a feeling a few San Anotnio groupie are about to start making their way to Gloria Allred's office.  According to the site:

The Desperate Housewives star's documents were filed in Los Angeles Superior Court just one day after her rep denied that Parker had done the same in a Texas court.

The cause of the split wasn't immediately revealed. But this past week the couple have been rocked with infidelity rumors, with claims that Tony has been unfaithful.

Reports state that the french San Antonio Spur baller and the "Desperate Housewives" actress did indeed have a prenup when they wed 3 years ago in a castle outside of Paris.  So who knows how this ish is going to turn out.

Kinda sad about this one.  Wasn't really expecting it, but we shouldn't be surprised about any type of cheating in the NBA.  Oh wells. 'C'est la vie.
